Special Scenario - Fandom Takeover
Fandom Takeover is an event story that was inspired by the Furry Fandom, or rather the process in which many furries, including myself, have become involved in the fandom after first exposure. From there, it goes to the logical conclusion as befitting of what the virus is designed to do.

Compared to Lost World and especially Reptilian Conspiracy, this event story is lighthearted and ultimately benign in nature, as your goal is to win the hearts and minds of everyone and turning them into what they want.

As already mentioned in the description of the scenario, transformation viruses are one of the go-to methods for furry biopunk - an effective plot device that's convenient to mention without going into much detail about how it works, just that it does. Provided, one could argue the same thing about other means of escapism (my personal preference is NANOMACHINES SON), but I digress.

You are free to choose whatever country you wish to start the plague in with this one. With that out of the way, the first order of business in taking this event story is to evolve the following:

- Psychological Mutations (13)
- Theriocentric Fixation (3)

Do this within 60 days of starting the scenario, and you will receive a news flash involving people sharing images of anthropomorphic animals on social networking sites.

As stated before, this is about winning hearts and minds, and thus giving everyone a dose of furry affinity. Evolve the following:

- Theriocentric Interaction (4)
- Theriophilia (5)
- Immaturity (7)
- Theriocentric Personality (7)

The last one is crucial for carrying on with the event story upon a country becoming 60% infected, as the population will then start pressuring the government to relax restrictions on morphological freedom.

If you want to wait at this point and watch every country start supporting morphological freedom amongst the general populace, let alone infect the entire world, feel free to do so. Otherwise, you're done creating the demand. All that's left is the supply, in which case evolve Morphological Shift up to 4. This will mark the most likely time that people will start noticing the virus, but by that point, the vast majority of the world will likely not care too much about it.

Eventually, you will receive an announcement proclaiming the first country to be populated entirely by anthropomorphic animals, and that the population, happy with their new forms, are a little stumped at the idea of a "cure" for their "affliction".

From there on in, it should be smooth sailing to victory.

I can`t get further. I evolve Theriocentric Personality but I don`t get the notification even if I infect 60% of the world.

I went back to play-test further. As it happens, the event is set up such that you cannot have any symptoms outside the ones prescribed in the walkthrough up to that point.

Thank you for your help.
